Question

Factor the following polynomial 7x^2+23x+7x

Answer 1

x=0 and x=-30/7

Explanation:

In order to factor, simplify the quadratic first.

`7x^2+23x+7x\\7x^2+30x`

Then factor using GCF and bring out the greatest common factor between them, x.

`x(7x+30)`

Set each factor equal to 0 and solve.

x=0

7x+30=0

x=-30/7
